Hello together

NetWare uses MetroWerks CodeWarrior to build applications and
that means that NetWare needs his own project file. I've attached this
file together woth some OS specific file in one zip file.

Please copy this file to /src/backend/port/netware

This project will generate the all binaries that are necessary to
build
postgres on NetWare (postmaster, libpq, pg_dump, dp_rest...)

Thank you

Ulrich

This seems a quite unreasonably large amount of stuff to expect us to
maintain for one port.  Especially when half of it is a binary file
that we won't even be able to read, much less maintain.

Perhaps it's time to give up the notion that Netware is a reasonable
platform for us to consider supporting.
